we had an amazing time at the MEIC Conference! The Director of the Bureau of Family Health and Nutrition at DPH came to our Parent Dinner and talked about how important family stories are in making systems change. It was powerful! Check out the EIPLP FaceBook page for pictures from that dinner, and the rest of the conference. If you see someone you know, be sure to tag them in the photo!

Parent Contacts are an important part of the Massachusetts Early Intervention System. Parent Contacts are parents and guardians of children currently receiving EI services who volunteer to receive information from the EIPLP and share it with other families. If your child is no longer receiving services, or you no longer wish to be the Parent Contact for your EI program, please let us know by calling
1-877-353-4757 or emailing[email protected] so that we can identify another family from your program.
